This review is from: Ashworth Hall: A Novel (Charlotte & Thomas Pitt Novels (Audio)) (Audio Cassette)

This audio book is respresented here as 'Unabridged.' It is not. It is abridged. I know, I own a copy.

I have found this misrepresentation very often here on Amazon.com

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Anne Perry's Best, January 22, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Ashworth Hall: A Novel (Charlotte & Thomas Pitt Novels (Audio)) (Audio Cassette)

As a diehard Anne Perry fan, I was disappointed in Ashworth Hall. I couldn't stay with it. I don't know what went wrong! I have loved every other book she's written, and I've read all but the newest Thomas and Charlotte, and one Monk. Ashworth Hall didn't seem like an Anne Perry book at all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, not great, either, July 29, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Ashworth Hall (Charlotte & Thomas Pitt Novels) (Hardcover)

Having read all of the Pitt and Monk novels, I find myself continuing to look forward to the next one despite seeing the same flaws repeated from novel to novel. The real strength of her writing, and which fascinates me, is the characterization of interesting people-their lives and emotions- during an exciting period in time. The mysteries themselves often require such amazing leaps in logic and fantastic coincidences that I find my belief occasionally strained. This does not detract from my enjoyment of the novels, however!
